Everett
Young has completely reinvented himself.
The Atlanta producer has just completed The Ground, an album of
huge-production moody pop songs that marry powerful, ultra-singable
melodies with haunting orchestral productions, written, produced
and conducted by Young in his Stone Mountain, GA studio.
The Ground is a total departure from Young’s previous, more
jazz-influenced work as a solo artist. The voice is
recognizable, but much more mature. The songs and style are so
different that it’s clear Young has been in his transformative
cocoon for quite some time.
In fact, it’s been 5 years since the release of his last
album, What If, which though largely unnoticed in the U.S., sold
several thousand units abroad. That album, which he released
under the name Hudson Young
(his middle name), drew rave
reviews, and gave him the opportunity to tour and develop his
stage legs.
